Venus GX

The Venus GX provides intuitive control and monitoring for all Victron power systems. The list of
Victron products that can be connected is endless: Inverters, Multis, Quattros, MPPT solar chargers,
BMV battery monitors, Lynx Ion + Shunt and more.

VRM Online Portal

All readings are forwarded to our free remote monitoring website: the VRM Online Portal. To get an
impression, try the demo on https://vrm.victronenergy.com. See also the screenshots below.

Remote Console on VRM

The way to access the device for setting up, as well as monitoring, is via Remote Console. Either via
VRM, via the built-in WiFi Access Point, or on the local LAN/WiFi network.

Automatic genset start/stop

A highly customizable start/stop system. Use state of charge, voltage, load and other parameters.
Define a special set of rules for quiet times, and optionally a monthly test run.

The heart of ESS – Energy Storage System

The Venus GX is the Energy Manager in an ESS system. More information in the ESS manual:

Data logging

When connected to the internet, all data is sent to the VRM Portal. When there is no internet
connection available, the Venus GX will store the data internally, up to 48 hours. By inserting a micro
SD-card or USB stick, more data can be stored. These files can then be uploaded to the VRM Portal, or
offline converted with the VictronConnect app, for analysis.

Supported products

- Multis and Quattros, including split-phase and three-phase systems. Monitoring and control
(on/off and current limiter). Changing configuration is possible (only remotely via the internet,
not without an internet connection).
- BlueSolar MPPT Solar Chargers with a VE.Direct port.
- BlueSolar MPPT 150/70 and the MPPT 150/85 with VE.Can port. When multiple BlueSolar
MPPTs with VE.Can are used in parallel, the all information is combined as one. See also our
blog-post about synchronizing multiple MPPT 150/70 solar chargers.
- BMV-700 family can be connected directly to the VE.Direct ports on the Venus GX. Use the
VE.Direct Cable for this.
- BMV-600 family can be connected to the VE.Direct ports on the Venus GX. Requires an
accessory cable.
- Lynx Ion + Shunt
- Lynx Ion BMS
- Lynx Shunt VE.Can
- Skylla-i battery chargers
- NMEA2000 tank sensors
- A USB GPS can be connected to the USB port. The data is sent to the VRM Portal for tracking
purposes. The map on VRM will show the latest position.
- Fronius PV Inverters
When more than two VE.Direct products must be connected, USB can be used.

Internet connection

The Venus GX can be connected to internet with an Ethernet cable and via Wi-Fi. The Venus GX has no internal cellular modem: there is no slot for a sim-card. Use an off-the-shelf GPRS or 3G router
instead.

Renewable energy technology developer Renewable Energy Solutions Australia (RESA) has received approval for its VoltLogic power management device to connect to the grid in sections of NSW where power export limitations for larger solar systems have been introduced.
